WIB-Los Angeles: Executive Advisors & Sponsors Appreciation Dinner

On November 18, Women In Bio Los Angeles hosted our annual Sponsors & Executive Advisory Appreciation Dinner — an evening dedicated to the people and partners who make our chapter’s impact possible. Set against an intimate backdrop that encouraged genuine conversation, the dinner brought together our Executive Advisory Committee, chapter sponsors, and our leadership team for a night of connection, reflection, and gratitude. It was a rare moment to step away from the pace of our programming calendar and celebrate the community that fuels everything we do.

Our Executive Advisors continue to serve as the strategic backbone of our chapter. They offer guidance that sharpens our vision, support that strengthens our initiatives, and a willingness to show up — consistently and wholeheartedly — for women across the life sciences. Their insights shape our chapter’s direction, inspire our volunteer leaders, and help us stay responsive to the evolving needs of LA’s biotech and life science ecosystem. It was an opportunity to say something we don’t say nearly enough: thank you.

Our chapter sponsors are true community partners. Their support enables us to host high-impact programs, expand access for emerging leaders, and create spaces where women at every stage of their careers can connect, learn, and lead. These organizations invest not only in WIB-Los Angeles but also in the next generation of life science leadership across LA. Their belief in our mission is what allows our chapter to grow year after year.

The collective commitment in the room was a shared belief that Los Angeles is home to extraordinary women driving innovation, and that together, we can build an ecosystem that truly supports their success. As we plan for 2026, we’re energized by the momentum and inspired by the people who champion this work alongside us.
